My G4 w Tiger OS X won't connect to an Epson Artisan 810 All-In-One Printer

My G4 with Tiger connected via USB 1.1 to an Epson Artisan 810 Combination Copier, Printer, Scanner, and Fax won't add to the Printer List of my G4 with OSX 10.4.11. The error message is "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer. Error: -9672 and has Epson Preferred Support stumped. Three individual techs each one building on previous attempts tracked by reference numbers end up with the same error -9672. The following are rough outlines of attempts to add the Artisan 810 to the other (hp) Inkjet 5550 printer on the Printer List for the G4.
1. Trash the com.apple.printer.plists, repair permissions, and install Printer Driver v6.61 (epson13216.dmg). Load Printer SetUp Utility, click on + (add) to show the Artisan 810 on the list to add, click on add, only to get error -9672.
2. Install instead the Drivers and Utilities Combo Package for the printer (epson13613.dmg). Same result: error -9672.
3. Trash Epson plug-ins in Library> Printer> Epson as well as Epsondriver.pkg in Receipts. Then install Printer Driver v6.61 again. No luck.
The last support tech suggested going to Apple (the Genius Bar) for help, essentially saying "it's an Apple issue".
BTW, the device checks out in a test using the copy feature. Beautiful!
Any ideas would be most welcome.
Thanks.

Hello Raymon,
I noticed you have USB 1.1 and that a
requirement for the 810 is High-Speed
USB.
PC Connection Hi-Speed USB, Ethernet 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, USB host

Select Specs at this link.
If you have a 10/100 Ethernet connector laying around you
can try to connect it that way.
Good Luck,

HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer won't print in color with new cartridge

HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer on a iMAC OSX version 10.9.5 system
Hello,
As I don't print in color much but had need to I discovered my printer not printing in color. I trouble shooted and even replaced with an new HP95 new from Office Depot ( I never buy refilled). The printer still won't print color but it advances the paper as if it was printing - just no ink on paper. I have cleaned thoroughly the ink jet heads, cartridge area, and run all the alignment and printer utilities. The test page print does not show color either. I have no error messages. Don't know what else to do.
thanks
DH

Hi there @dhengr!
Thanks for contacting the HP Forums!
I can see your having a print quality issue with your HP OfficeJet 6310. I should be able to provide documentation that will help locate a resolution. You mentioned you have already tried another HP95 tri-color cartridge with no resolution. I also noticed you said that the quality report from the printer also has no color ink.
If a stand alone test report is performed from the front of the printer such a printhead cleaning or print quality report and there is no color on the page then you are likely looking at a hardware issue within the printer. I have provided a document regarding Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors on the HP Officejet 6310 All-in-One Printer. If you follow the document from start to finish and still have the same issue then I would recommend contacting our HP tech support via phone. They deal with hardware warranty and replacement options.

My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures ...

My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures. I´ve used the printer, since it was new on the marked, and it has worked perfectly until a few weeks back. There is no problem printing out pictures, but only blank pages comes out when I´m printing out documents. Regardless if it is Word, Excel etc.
I´ve never used anything else than original cartridges, and the printer is used on Mac OS X 10.7.4. I´ve tried to reinstall the printer several times without any success.
Can anyone help me?

Hello,

All in one printer won't print black ink - colour only

My all in one printer won't print in black right now - colour only - even though the black ink is new. It will print a couple of black ink pages and then reverts to colour. If I give it a rest it will print a couple more black pages and then again, in colour - I think something needs cleaning but I don't know what - any help is much appreciated! Val

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? What operating system? Is the black cartridge an original HP or a third party or refill/renamufactured cartridge? (The symptom is typical of a poorly refilled cartrdige....)

PSC 1510 All in one printer - won't print even black and white when colour cartridge not recognised

My PSC 1510 All in one printer is flashing the "check printer cartrige icon" and both "Black" and "Colour" icons at the bottom left of the printer.
It won't print at all, even when I select grayscale (black and white). The help pages tell me that if I remove the colour cartridge the printer will switch to backup mode and I'll still be able to print in black and white (though not copy or scan). But this is not the case, and I can find no way of switching manually to backup mode. The help pages have no useful explanation of backup mode. I've also tried cleaning the cartridge (which I'm pretty sure isn't empty) but that makes no difference.
Can anyone help? I'd be very grateful.

gabri21 wrote: I have a very similar problem with my PSC1510 but only the colour cartridge light is blinking. I am also unable to find any useful information to set up printing in back up mode. Can anyone assist in resolving this problem for us?
With only one cartridge light blinking I would suspect the cartridge, they do rarely fail (much more often for reman cartridges, see here). Clean the cartridge contascts as shown here. If that fails and the cartridge is an original HP then check the warranty date as shown here. If the cartridge is in warranty return it to your dealer for a warranty replacement.
The printer will automatically switch to backup mode if the black (or color in some printers) cartridge is removed. I do not know if this works with the PSC 1510, some all-in-on devices insist on having both cartridges present.

My HP Photosmart B209a won't scan on new Windows 8 HP all in one computer

My HP Photosmart B209a, which worked properly with Windows 7 will not scan from the printer or the computer on my new HP all inone desktop with Windows 8. The fix program recommended by this site won't download to this computer either. It will to my other brand new HP all in one desktop downstairs, but not this one. I'm so frustrated after 5 hours of trying to make this device scan again!

Hi @snbdds,

TS1398 My iPhone 4 won't connect to my home WiFi, but all my other devices are connecting to it just fine. Please help!

Hey everyone, I have been having this problem for about a day or two now. I have an iPhone 4, and have iOS 7.1.2. Basically, my iPhone will connect to my home WiFi sometimes, but it randomly loses connection and won't connect for hours upon hours. I have tried turning it on and off multiple times as well as resetting the network settings. I know that it is not my network's problem because a member of my family has an iPhone 5S, and it works fine with the WiFi, along with all of my other devices. This issue is getting very annoying as I don't like to use my cellular data at home since it is limited. Please help me!!

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
What happens when it fail to connect?
----- Does the iOS device see the network?
----- Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Hp officejet pro 8600 all in one prints but won't scan

I have recently moved house and changed my wireless router from BT to Virgin.
I am running OS X 10.9.5
I am able to print from my mac without issue, however, it has stopped scanning. I have managed to get it to work twice on isolated instances but it won't work consistently.
I have unistalled the software and reinstalled via the HP download page but when I open HP Scan and click scan it asks me to choose which scanner - mine is selected, it then says preparing to scan and it does that for ages until it says it can't get a connection.
My printe r is a HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-one N911g - I am not bothered that much about scanning from the printer to the computer (I have tried to enable this option and it won't let me) I just want to be able to open HP Scan and press scan and it scan on my computer.
Any advice appreciated - thank you

Hi there @Steph390 , welcome to the forums!
I have some suggestions for you to hopefully correct the scanning issue you are having. Please feel free to reply back and let me know the results!
1. Try power cycling the network devices:
Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer.
2. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
3. Repair disk permissions
4. Restart your computer.
5. Re-add the printer
Once the printer is connected on the network, follow these steps to maintain the wireless connection, normally a static IP will help out quite a bit: Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection
Good luck to you

I have a canon pixma mx360 all in one printer and it won't print

my printer won't print I just replaced the ink. I tried to trouble shoot the printer, and it said that I had a printer error in the que.
I cleared the que and it still won't print. can you please help me figure this out? my printer is a pixma canon mx360 all in one
ink jet.

Hi wendasa,
If you have any antivirus or firewall programs on your computer, please temporarily disable them and then try to scan again. Sometimes these programs can block the scanning process of the printer. If you are still unable to scan, we can try scanning using the Microsoft Paint program to see if the scanner function of the printer is working. To attempt to scan using Microsoft Paint, please follow these steps:
1. Launch Windows Paint by pressing the Windows Key+ R, then typing mspaint, then clicking OK.
2. Once inside of Paint, in the upper left corner you will see a blue square; please click on that and select FROM SCANNER OR CAMERA. A window will appear asking you what device you want to use. Please select the PIXMA MX360, then press the OK button.
3. In the next window, you should have the option of selecting a document type; please select one, then press the SCAN button in the window.
Are you able to scan using Microsoft Paint?

HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer C309g won't print from iTunes

My C309G won't print anything from iTunes. Anybody have any luck fixing this problem? Thanks.

Hi - Got this from another user on the forum. Go into Printers and Devices (from start menu), right click on the C309G and there should be a Properties option. Select Properties and click Advanced. the default is "Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster", and then "Start printing immediately". Change it to "Print directly to the printer". This resolved the problem for a number of users.
Hope that helps.

My iPod classic (160gb) won't connect to iTunes I've tried all the updates (using an 07 MacBook I believe) and it keeps saying it needs snow leapord

I just bought it and it won't work! I did all the updates but it's saying I need snow leopard? Please help!!

HI there,
Snow Leopard is going to be a paid update that you will need to order form the Apple Online Store. Before upgrading, it is always a good idea to have a backup of your information. The article below has more information about backing up.

HP 2210xi all in one printer won't turn off so I can try resetting it.

I have a error message: Remove and check cartridge. I have removed both cartridges, cleaned them and cleaned the points on the printer. I tried to turn the printer off so I can unplug the power cord and see if resetting will help. Pressing the on/off switch does not turn the printer off. I have not tried downloading firmware updates (something I've never done) and will try that if anyone thinks it will help. I've read that my next step would be to buy new cartridges, but since the printer won't turn off I'm concerned that I'll be stuck with $50 worth of ink and still need a new printer. Any help will be appreciated!!

Hi @3Friends ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand you are having a problem with the scan to email feature on your Photosmart 7520.
I would like to help you.
Try setting a manual DNS.
Here is a link, to a post by happytohelp01, that has some nice screen shots and the steps.
It is for a 7510, but the steps will be the same.
Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint several times
If that does not get the scan to email working, you may have to remove, then enable the web services.
This will be kind of like an uninstall/reinstall, for the scan to email and ePrint features.
If you have a custom ePrint address, it will be lost.
Not lost for six months, or a year, but forever.
Just touch the ePrint icon on the printer
Go into the settings sub menu, then scroll down and chose remove web services.
It will bring you back to the main screen, just touch the ePrint icon again, and enable the feature.
After that go to scan to email and set it up again.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Please hlep me! I did print a network configuration page which said that no problems were found. Also my router is a Cisco linksys E1000.
